INTRODUCTION

Aspects of the present disclosure generally relate to wireless communication and to techniques and apparatuses for temporary alteration to an uplink transmission configuration.

Wireless communication systems are widely deployed to provide various telecommunication services such as telephony, video, data, messaging, and broadcasts. Typical wireless communication systems may employ multiple-access technologies capable of supporting communication with multiple users by sharing available system resources (e.g., bandwidth, transmit power, a combination thereof, and/or the like). Examples of such multiple-access technologies include code division multiple access (CDMA) systems, time division multiple access (TDMA) systems, frequency-division multiple access (FDMA) systems, orthogonal frequency-division multiple access (OFDMA) systems, single-carrier frequency-division multiple access (SC-FDMA) systems, time division synchronous code division multiple access (TD-SCDMA) systems, and Long Term Evolution (LTE). LTE/LTE-Advanced is a set of enhancements to the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) mobile standard promulgated by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP).

A wireless communication network may include a number of base stations (BSs) that can support communication for a number of user equipment (UEs). A user equipment (UE) may communicate with a base station (BS) via the downlink and uplink. The downlink (or forward link) refers to the communication link from the BS to the UE, and the uplink (or reverse link) refers to the communication link from the UE to the BS. As will be described in more detail herein, a BS may be referred to as a Node B, a gNB, an access point (AP), a radio head, a transmit receive point (TRP), a New Radio (NR) BS, a 5G Node B, a combination thereof, and/or the like.

The above multiple access technologies have been adopted in various telecommunication standards to provide a common protocol that enables different user equipment to communicate on a municipal, national, regional, and even global level. New Radio (NR), which may also be referred to as 5G, is a set of enhancements to the LTE mobile standard promulgated by the Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP). NR is designed to better support mobile broadband Internet access by improving spectral efficiency, lowering costs, improving services, making use of new spectrum, and better integrating with other open standards using orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with a cyclic prefix (CP) (CP-OFDM) on the downlink (DL), using CP-OFDM and/or SC-FDM (e.g., also known as discrete Fourier transform spread OFDM (DFT-s-OFDM)) on the uplink (UL), as well as supporting beamforming, multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) antenna technology, and carrier aggregation. However, as the demand for mobile broadband access continues to increase, there exists a need for further improvements in LTE and NR technologies. Preferably, these improvements should be applicable to other multiple access technologies and the telecommunication standards that employ these technologies.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

In some communications systems, such as 5G with time division duplexing (TDD), base stations (BSs) may provide neighboring cells that are independently scheduled. For example, a first BS may provide and schedule a first cell and a second BS may provide and schedule a second cell. When a plurality of cells are neighbor cells (e.g., the cells are deployed within a common area, such as approximately the same geographic area, in the same building, or otherwise such that coverage of the plurality cells overlaps or is within a threshold proximity of other cells within the plurality of cells, among other examples), the plurality of cells may cause some amount of interference. For example, some transmissions in the first cell may interference with other transmissions in the second cell.

When cells are independently scheduled, the level of interference may differ across slots. For example, in a first slot, uplink transmissions in a first cell may experience a first level of cross-link interference from transmissions in a second cell as a result of respective scheduling in the first cell and the second cell. Further, in a second slot, uplink transmissions in the first cell may experience a second level of cross-link interference from transmissions in the second cell as a result of respective scheduling in the first cell and the second cell.

Some techniques enable adaptation of uplink transmissions using static signaling. For example, the first BS may transmit a command to cause a first UE to use repetition for uplink transmissions to account for the cross-link interference. Because the level of cross-link interference changes, the command may be appropriate to account for cross-link interference at some times.

Some aspects described herein enable dynamic uplink transmission adaptation. For example, a BS may configure a temporary resource change, which may include time resources, frequency resources, a repetition configuration, a combination thereof, and/or the like for a UE to use during an occurrence of temporary cross-link interference. After detecting the occurrence of temporary cross-link interference, the BS may transmit a command to cause the UE to use the configured time resources, frequency resources, repetition configuration, a combination thereof, and/or the like. In one or more examples, the BS may cause the temporary resource change to expire after a configured period of time.

In this way, the BS provides additional resources to enable the UE to adapt to a threshold level of cross-link interference. Further, the UE may avoid using the additional resources after the level of cross-link interference has changed (e.g., to less than the threshold level in another slot, after a configured quantity of symbols, a combination thereof, and/or the like). In this way, the BS and the UE use dynamic adaptation to reduce a utilization of network resources by avoiding using additional resources after the change to the level of cross-link interference.

Various aspects of the disclosure are described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings. This disclosure may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to any specific structure or function presented throughout this disclosure. Rather, these aspects are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the scope of the disclosure to those skilled in the art. Based on the teachings herein one skilled in the art should appreciate that the scope of the disclosure is intended to cover any aspect of the disclosure disclosed herein, whether implemented independently of or combined with any other aspect of the disclosure. For example, an apparatus may be implemented or a method may be practiced using any number of the aspects set forth herein. In addition, the scope of the disclosure is intended to cover such an apparatus or method which is practiced using other structure, functionality, or structure and functionality in addition to or other than the various aspects of the disclosure set forth herein. It should be understood that any aspect of the disclosure disclosed herein may be embodied by one or more elements of a claim.

Several aspects of telecommunication systems will now be presented with reference to various apparatuses and techniques. These apparatuses and techniques will be described in the following detailed description and illustrated in the accompanying drawings by various blocks, modules, components, circuits, steps, processes, algorithms, a combination thereof, and/or the like (collectively referred to as “elements”). These elements may be implemented using hardware, software, or combinations thereof. Whether such elements are implemented as hardware or software depends upon the particular application and design constraints imposed on the overall system.

It should be noted that while aspects may be described herein using terminology commonly associated with 3G and/or 4G wireless technologies, aspects of the present disclosure can be applied in other generation-based communication systems, such as 5G and later, including NR technologies.

FIG. 1 is a diagram illustrating a wireless network 100 in which aspects of the present disclosure may be practiced. The wireless network 100 may be an LTE network, a 5G or NR network, a combination thereof, and/or the like. The wireless network 100 may include a number of BSs 110 (shown as BS 110 a, BS 110 b, BS 110 c, and BS 110 d) and other network entities. A BS is an entity that communicates with user equipment (UEs) and may also be referred to as a base station, a NR BS, a Node B, a gNB, a 5G node B (NB), an access point, a transmit receive point (TRP), a combination thereof, and/or the like. Each BS may provide communication coverage for a particular geographic area. In 3GPP, the term “cell” can refer to a coverage area of a BS and/or a BS subsystem serving this coverage area, depending on the context in which the term is used.

A BS may provide communication coverage for a macro cell, a pico cell, a femto cell, and/or another type of cell. A macro cell may cover a relatively large geographic area (e.g., several kilometers in radius) and may allow unrestricted access by UEs with service subscription. A pico cell may cover a relatively small geographic area and may allow unrestricted access by UEs with service subscription. A femto cell may cover a relatively small geographic area (e.g., a home) and may allow restricted access by UEs having association with the femto cell (e.g., UEs in a closed subscriber group (CSG)). A BS for a macro cell may be referred to as a macro BS. A BS for a pico cell may be referred to as a pico BS. A BS for a femto cell may be referred to as a femto BS or a home BS. In the example shown in FIG. 1 , a BS 110 a may be a macro BS for a macro cell 102 a, a BS 110 b may be a pico BS for a pico cell 102 b, and a BS 110 c may be a femto BS for a femto cell 102 c. A BS may support one or multiple (e.g., three) cells. The terms “eNB”, “base station”, “NR BS”, “gNB”, “TRP”, “AP”, “node B”, “5G NB”, and “cell” may be used interchangeably herein.

In some examples, a cell may not necessarily be stationary, and the geographic area of the cell may move according to the location of a mobile BS. In some examples, the BSs may be interconnected to one another and/or to one or more other BSs or network nodes (not shown) in the wireless network 100 through various types of backhaul interfaces such as a direct physical connection, a virtual network, a combination thereof, and/or the like using any suitable transport network.

Wireless network 100 may also include relay stations. A relay station is an entity that can receive a transmission of data from an upstream station (e.g., a BS or a UE) and send a transmission of the data to a downstream station (e.g., a UE or a BS). A relay station may also be a UE that can relay transmissions for other UEs. In the example shown in FIG. 1 , a relay station 110 d may communicate with macro BS 110 a and a UE 120 d in order to facilitate communication between BS 110 a and UE 120 d. A relay station may also be referred to as a relay BS, a relay base station, a relay, a combination thereof, and/or the like.

Wireless network 100 may be a heterogeneous network that includes BSs of different types, e.g., macro BSs, pico BSs, femto BSs, relay BSs, a combination thereof, and/or the like. These different types of BSs may have different transmit power levels, different coverage areas, and different impacts on interference in wireless network 100. For example, macro BSs may have a high transmit power level (e.g., 5 to 40 watts) whereas pico BSs, femto BSs, and relay BSs may have lower transmit power levels (e.g., 0.1 to 2 watts).

UEs 120 (e.g., 120 a, 120 b, 120 c) may be dispersed throughout wireless network 100, and each UE may be stationary or mobile. A UE may also be referred to as an access terminal, a terminal, a mobile station, a subscriber unit, a station, a combination thereof, and/or the like. A UE may be a cellular phone (e.g., a smart phone), a personal digital assistant (PDA), a wireless modem, a wireless communication device, a handheld device, a laptop computer, a cordless phone, a wireless local loop (WLL) station, a tablet, a camera, a gaming device, a netbook, a smartbook, an ultrabook, a medical device or equipment, biometric sensors/devices, wearable devices (smart watches, smart clothing, smart glasses, smart wrist bands, smart jewelry (e.g., smart ring, smart bracelet)), an entertainment device (e.g., a music or video device, or a satellite radio), a vehicular component or sensor, smart meters/sensors, industrial manufacturing equipment, a global positioning system device, or any other suitable device that is configured to communicate via a wireless or wired medium.

Some UEs may be considered machine-type communication (MTC) or evolved or enhanced machine-type communication (eMTC) UEs. MTC and eMTC UEs include, for example, robots, drones, remote devices, sensors, meters, monitors, location tags, a combination thereof, and/or the like, that may communicate with a base station, another device (e.g., remote device), or some other entity. A wireless node may provide, for example, connectivity for or to a network (e.g., a wide area network such as Internet or a cellular network) via a wired or wireless communication link. Some UEs may be considered Internet-of-Things (IoT) devices, and/or may be implemented as may be implemented as NB-IoT (narrowband internet of things) devices. Some UEs may be considered a Customer Premises Equipment (CPE). UE 120 may be included inside a housing that houses components of UE 120, such as processor components, memory components, a combination thereof, and/or the like.

In general, any number of wireless networks may be deployed in a given geographic area. Each wireless network may support a particular RAT and may operate on one or more frequencies. A RAT may also be referred to as a radio technology, an air interface, a combination thereof, and/or the like. A frequency may also be referred to as a carrier, a frequency channel, a combination thereof, and/or the like. Each frequency may support a single RAT in a given geographic area in order to avoid interference between wireless networks of different RATs. In some cases, NR or 5G RAT networks may be deployed.

As shown in FIG. 1 , the UE 120 may include a communication manager 140. As described in more detail elsewhere herein, the communication manager 140 may set a temporary resource change, receive an indicator of the temporary resource change based at least in part on a detection of a threshold level of cross-link interference, transmit one or more uplink transmissions before an expiration for the temporary resource change using the temporary resource change, return to a different configuration after the expiration of the occurrence of temporary cross-link interference, a combination thereof, and/or the like. Additionally, or alternatively, the communication manager 140 may perform one or more other operations described herein.

Similarly, the base station 110 may include a communication manager 150. As described in more detail elsewhere herein, the communication manager 150 may set a temporary resource change, detect a threshold level of cross-link interference for a first uplink transmission by a UE, and transmit, to the UE to use for a second uplink transmission, an indicator of the temporary resource change based at least in part on detecting the threshold level of cross-link interference. Additionally, or alternatively, the communication manager 150 may perform one or more other operations described herein.

As indicated above, FIG. 1 is provided merely as an example. Other examples may differ from what is described with regard to FIG. 1 .

FIG. 2 shows a block diagram of a design 200 of base station 110 (e.g., base station 110 a) and UE 120 (e.g., UE 120 a), which may be one of the base stations and one of the UEs in FIG. 1 . Base station 110 may be equipped with T antennas 234 a through 234 t, and UE 120 may be equipped with R antennas 252 a through 252 r, where in general T ≥ 1 and R ≥ 1.

At base station 110, a transmit processor 220 may receive data from a data source 212 for one or more UEs, select one or more modulation and coding schemes (MCS) for each UE based at least in part on channel quality indicators (CQIs) received from the UE, process (e.g., encode and modulate) the data for each UE based at least in part on the MCS(s) selected for the UE, and provide data symbols for all UEs. Transmit processor 220 may also process system information (e.g., for semi-static resource partitioning information (SRPI), a combination thereof, and/or the like) and control information (e.g., CQI requests, grants, upper layer signaling, a combination thereof, and/or the like) and provide overhead symbols and control symbols. Transmit processor 220 may also generate reference symbols for reference signals (e.g., the cell-specific reference signal (CRS)) and synchronization signals (e.g., the primary synchronization signal (PSS) and secondary synchronization signal (SSS)). A transmit (TX) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) processor 230 may perform spatial processing (e.g., precoding) on the data symbols, the control symbols, the overhead symbols, and/or the reference symbols, if applicable, and may provide T output symbol streams to T modulators (MODs) 232 a through 232 t. Each modulator 232 may process a respective output symbol stream (e.g., for OFDM and/or the like) to obtain an output sample stream. Each modulator 232 may further process (e.g., convert to analog, amplify, filter, and upconvert) the output sample stream to obtain a downlink signal. T downlink signals from modulators 232 a through 232 t may be transmitted via T antennas 234 a through 234 t, respectively. According to various aspects described in more detail below, the synchronization signals can be generated with location encoding to convey additional information.

At UE 120, antennas 252 a through 252 r may receive the downlink signals from base station 110 and/or other base stations and may provide received signals to demodulators (DEMODs) 254 a through 254 r, respectively. Each demodulator 254 may condition (e.g., filter, amplify, downconvert, and digitize) a received signal to obtain input samples. Each demodulator 254 may further process the input samples (e.g., for OFDM and/or the like) to obtain received symbols. A MIMO detector 256 may obtain received symbols from all R demodulators 254 a through 254 r, perform MIMO detection on the received symbols if applicable, and provide detected symbols. A receive processor 258 may process (e.g., demodulate and decode) the detected symbols, provide decoded data for UE 120 to a data sink 260, and provide decoded control information and system information to a controller/processor 280. A channel processor may determine reference signal received power (RSRP), received signal strength indicator (RSSI), reference signal received quality (RSRQ), channel quality indicator (CQI), a combination thereof, and/or the like. In some aspects, one or more components of UE 120 may be included in a housing.

On the uplink, at UE 120, a transmit processor 264 may receive and process data from a data source 262 and control information (e.g., for reports comprising RSRP, RSSI, RSRQ, CQI, a combination thereof, and/or the like) from controller/processor 280. Transmit processor 264 may also generate reference symbols for one or more reference signals. The symbols from transmit processor 264 may be precoded by a TX MIMO processor 266 if applicable, further processed by modulators 254 a through 254 r (e.g., for DFT-s-OFDM, CP-OFDM, a combination thereof, and/or the like), and transmitted to base station 110. At base station 110, the uplink signals from UE 120 and other UEs may be received by antennas 234, processed by demodulators 232, detected by a MIMO detector 236 if applicable, and further processed by a receive processor 238 to obtain decoded data and control information sent by UE 120. Receive processor 238 may provide the decoded data to a data sink 239 and the decoded control information to controller/processor 240. Base station 110 may include communication unit 244 and communicate to a network controller via communication unit 244.

Controller/processor 240 of base station 110, controller/processor 280 of UE 120, and/or any other component(s) of FIG. 2 may perform one or more techniques associated with dynamic uplink transmission adaptation, as described in more detail elsewhere herein. For example, controller/processor 240 of base station 110, controller/processor 280 of UE 120, and/or any other component(s) of FIG. 2 may perform or direct operations of, for example, process 500 of FIG. 5 , process 600 of FIG. 6 , and/or other processes as described herein. Memories 242 and 282 may store data and program codes for base station 110 and UE 120, respectively. A scheduler 246 may schedule UEs for data transmission on the downlink and/or uplink.

In some aspects, a BS includes means for transmitting, to a UE, an indication of a temporary resource change, wherein the temporary resource change is associated with at least one of a resource configuration, a repetition configuration, or a combination thereof; and/or means for receiving, from the UE, an uplink transmission in accordance with the temporary resource change. The means for the BS to perform operations described herein may include, for example, one or more of transmit processor 220, TX MIMO processor 230, modulator 232, antenna 234, demodulator 232, MIMO detector 236, receive processor 238, controller/processor 240, memory 242, or scheduler 246.

In some aspects, a UE includes means for receiving, from a BS, an indication of a temporary resource change, wherein the temporary resource change is associated with at least one of a resource configuration, a repetition configuration, or a combination thereof; and/or means for transmitting, to the BS, an uplink transmission in accordance with the temporary resource change. The means for the UE to perform operations described herein may include, for example, one or more of antenna 252, demodulator 254, MIMO detector 256, receive processor 258, transmit processor 264, TX MIMO processor 266, modulator 254, controller/processor 280, or memory 282.

As indicated above, FIG. 2 is provided merely as an example. Other examples may differ from what is described with regard to FIG. 2 .

FIG. 3 is a diagram illustrating an example 300 relating to cross-link interference detection and mitigation, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure.

In dynamic time division duplexing (TDD), the allocation of network resources to uplink and downlink may be dynamically modified depending on a traffic load. For example, a base station 110 may configure a TDD configuration (e.g., a TDD pattern) with more uplink transmission time intervals (TTIs) (e.g., frames, subframes, slots, mini-slots, symbols, and/or the like) for a UE 120 when the UE 120 has uplink data to transmit, and may configure a TDD configuration with more downlink TTIs for the UE 120 when the UE 120 has downlink data to receive. The TDD configuration may be dynamically configured to modify the allocation of uplink TTIs and downlink TTIs used for communication between the base station 110 and the UE 120.

As shown in FIG. 3 , when neighboring base stations 110 use different TDD configurations to communicate with UEs 120, this may result in a downlink communication 310 between a first base station 110-1 and a first UE 120-1 in a same TTI as an uplink communication 320 between a second base station 110-2 and a second UE 120-2. These communications in different transmission directions (e.g., downlink vs. uplink) in the same TTI may interfere with one another, which may be referred to as cross-link interference.

For example, as shown by reference number 330, the downlink communication 310 transmitted by the first base station 110-1 may be received by the second base station 110-2, and may interfere with reception, by the second base station 110-2, of the uplink communication 320 from the second UE 120-2. This may be referred to as downlink-to-uplink (DL-to-UL) interference, base station to base station interference, gNB to gNB interference, and/or the like.

Further, as shown by reference number 340, the uplink communication 320 transmitted by the second UE 120-2 may be received by the first UE 120-1, and may interfere with reception, by the first UE 120-1, of the downlink communication 310 from the first base station 110-1. This may be referred to as uplink-to-downlink (UL-to-DL) interference, UE to UE interference, and/or the like. This UE to UE interference may occur and/or may increase when the first UE 120-1 and the second UE 120-2 are in close proximity, and may be avoided or mitigated by preventing scheduling of the UEs 120 in different transmission directions in the same TTI.

As indicated above, FIG. 3 is provided as an example. Other examples are possible and may differ from what was described with respect to FIG. 3 .

FIG. 4 is a diagram illustrating an example 400 of dynamic uplink transmission adaptation, in accordance with various aspects of the present disclosure. As shown in FIG. 4 , example 400 includes a BS 110 (e.g., BS 110 a) and a UE 120 (e.g., UE 120 a).

As further shown in FIG. 4 , and by reference number 410, BS 110 may configure a temporary resource change for UE 120. For example, BS 110 may identify one or more additional time resources (e.g., additional to time resources already allocated to UE 120) in which UE 120 may transmit when BS 110 detects an occurrence of temporary cross-link interference. Additionally, or alternatively, BS 110 may identify one or more additional frequency resources in which UE 120 may transmit when BS 110 detects the occurrence of temporary cross-link interference. Additionally, or alternatively, BS 110 may determine a repetition configuration that UE 120 is to use when BS 110 detects the occurrence of temporary cross-link interference, such as a quantity of repetitions to transmit of an uplink transmission, which uplink transmissions are to be subject to transmission repetition, a combination thereof, and/or the like.

In one or more examples, BS 110 may provide information identifying the temporary resource change to UE 120 to enable UE 120 to use the temporary resource change when BS 110 detects an occurrence of temporary cross-link interference. For example, BS 110 may use radio resource control (RRC) signaling to provide an indicator of the temporary resource change or an indicator of an expiration thereof, as described in more detail herein. In some aspects, BS 110 may provide, via RRC signaling, information identifying a plurality of possible temporary resource changes (e.g., a plurality of possible additional time and/or frequency resources) from which UE 120 may select a particular temporary resource change to use, as described in more detail herein.

Additionally, or alternatively, BS 110 may provide the information identifying the temporary resource change to UE 120 when BS 110 detects the temporary resource change. For example, BS 110 may provide a downlink control information (DCI), such as a UE-specific DCI or a group-common DCI, to identify the temporary resource change at a time when UE 120 is to use the temporary resource change. Additionally, or alternatively, BS 110 may provide a medium access control (MAC) control element (CE) to identify the temporary resource change. As shown by reference number 420, before BS 110 detects the occurrence of temporary cross-link interference, UE 120 may communicate with BS 110 using a first set of time and/or frequency resources and/or using a first repetition configuration. For example, UE 120 may transmit one or more first uplink transmissions to BS 110.

As further shown in FIG. 4 , and by reference numbers 430 and 440, BS 110 may detect an occurrence of temporary cross-link interference and may cause UE 120 to use the temporary resource change for communication. For example, BS 110 may determine that, for a cell that includes UE 120, a level of cross-link interference relating to transmissions from another cell satisfies a threshold. In one or more examples, BS 110 may determine that cross-link interference relating to transmissions from the other cell is temporary, as described above, as a result of independent scheduling by BS 110 and another BS providing the other cell.

As a result, BS 110 may determine to cause UE 120 to activate the temporary resource change. For example, BS 110 may transmit an indicator of the temporary resource change to cause UE 120 to use the additional time resources, the additional frequency resources, the repetition configuration, a combination thereof, and/or the like of the temporary resource change. In one or more examples, the indicator may include an activation signal to indicate that UE 120 is to use a temporary resource change that was previously signaled to UE 120. Additionally, or alternatively, the indicator may include information identifying a temporary resource change. Additionally, or alternatively, the indicator may include information to enable UE 120 to select a temporary resource change from a plurality of previously signaled temporary resource changes. In one or more examples, the indicator may be a DCI (e.g., a UE-specific DCI or a group-common DCI), a MAC CE, a combination thereof, and/or the like.

In some aspects, BS 110 may provide information identifying when the temporary resource change is to expire. For example, BS 110 may instruct UE 120 to use the temporary resource change for a threshold amount of time. Additionally, or alternatively, BS 110 may instruct UE 120 to use the temporary resource change for a threshold quantity of slots, symbols, a combination thereof, and/or the like. In some aspects, UE 120 may store information identifying when the expiration of the temporary resource change is to occur, such as based on a previous signal, based on a standard-defined configuration, a combination thereof, and/or the like.

As further shown in FIG. 4 , and by reference number 450, UE 120 may communicate using a second set of time and/or frequency resources and/or a second repetition configuration of the temporary resource change. For example, UE 120 may transmit one or more second uplink transmissions to BS 110 using the temporary resource change. In one or more examples, after a threshold period of time, a threshold quantity of slots or symbols, a combination thereof, and/or the like, UE 120 may expire the temporary resource change, as shown by reference number 460. For example, UE 120 may return to communicating with BS 110 using the first set of time and/or frequency resources and/or the first repetition configuration, as shown by reference number 470.

As indicated above, FIG. 4 is provided as an example. Other examples may differ from what is described with respect to FIG. 4 .
